  • 1. Mana

    $$$$

    Set in a buttery yellow cottage with a touch of gingerbread trim, this unfussy eatery offers a refreshing break from Leavenworth's Bavaria-on-steroids exuberance. The kitchen presents artfully plated five-course meals (reservations required) of mostly organic, farm-sourced Northwestern fare. The food during these leisurely, two-and-a-half-hour repasts is simply sublime. Covered, heated outdoor dining offers privacy, and indoor dining gives a full view of the kitchen.
